About Erin

Erin Kemp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and LGBT-related concerns. Erin frames the first step of seeking help as an act of courage and recognizes each person brings strengths to the work.

Erin believes the client is the expert on their own life. Sessions center on the client's goals and experiences, and Erin aims to create a calm, straightforward space to talk things through. She uses practical strategies to build confidence, manage mood, and handle everyday stressors.

Her approach draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness skills. That means conversations often combine listening with hands-on ways to change thinking patterns and try small behavior shifts. Erin also brings ideas from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when they fit the client's needs.

In practice she helps people sort through relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and the pressures that come with work and caregiving. Additional areas of focus include codependency, attachment issues, ADHD, body image, and other life transitions such as adoption and aging.

Erin works from Louisiana and offers services in English. She accepts international clients through the site's processes. To get started, clients use the platform's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Erin uses client-centered work that focuses on what matters to the person in front of her. This approach prioritizes listening and helping clients name their goals so sessions follow their pace and priorities.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and then teaches concrete ways to test and change those habits. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and interpersonal borders are central concerns; DBT gives practical tools for handling intense feelings and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Erin will talk with each person about their goals, try out techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative stance helps tailor work to individual needs and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins on hectic days, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use different approaches by phone or video depending on a client's needs, and Erin will discuss what will work best when you begin the matching process.
